Reviews and Ratings
I decided to extend my stay in Aveiro and booked this hotel last minute. The views from my room were stunning, overlooking the canal, and the room itself was clean and well-equipped. However, I was quite disappointed with the pool situation, as it often had aqua aerobics classes occupying it, leaving us with limited options. Dinner was buffet style, which wasn’t what I expected from a 4-star hotel, and I felt that additional charges for using the pool were unacceptable given the high cost of the stay.
The hotel has a modern design and is conveniently located near the city attractions, which is a plus. The room I stayed in was spacious, with a nice view of the canal, but the cleanliness could have been better. I was unhappy with the dining options; the breakfast was rather underwhelming. The service was friendly but occasionally seemed overwhelmed.
I had a lovely stay at Melia Ria Aveiro, where the spacious and modern rooms provided a comfortable environment. The breakfast each morning was delightful, offering a wide range of fresh options. However, I found the service at check-in frustrating due to delays, and the pool fees felt excessive for a hotel of this caliber. Overall, it was a good experience with some minor setbacks.
My experience at this hotel was mixed. The location, with beautiful canal views, was a major highlight, and I loved the heated pools, which added a wonderful touch to my stay. However, the service was quite frustrating at times, especially during check-in, and the restrictions on the air conditioning made it uncomfortable. Overall, it had its positives, but there are definitely areas needing improvement.
I spent a lovely time at this hotel, which has a great view and is conveniently located near several attractions. The rooms are generally quite nice, though I found them a bit cramped and had unexpected bed arrangements. The breakfast buffet was fantastic, with a wide selection. However, I was disappointed by the service, which felt a bit impersonal despite the efforts of the staff to assist.
